"Get out of here right now...!"

Suppressing the urge to punch her away, Accelerator left quickly and angrily.

…No.

He had only taken a few steps when a peculiar expression appeared on his face.

In fact, the girl he had just met also gave him a very strange feeling.

What exactly is it?

"The direction of the vector flow on that guy's body... is slightly abnormal."

——————————————————————————————————————————

"Hmm...it looks like they've gone quite far."

I was thinking of asking them to add my phone number, but it seems like that's completely impossible now.

But I always have a feeling that we'll see each other again in the future.

"So, what's next..."

After finishing the sickeningly sweet coconut juice she had just bought, the girl named Takamiya Mana quietly stretched.

Then, he took out a pendant from his pocket.

"I really hope I can find you this time. My hunch is right."

"elder brother."

pat.

Inside the necklace, there was a photograph.

If Accelerator were here, he would definitely be able to recognize who the person in the photo is.

The boy with short blue hair is located right in the center.

"I will definitely find you, brother..."

The girl, clutching the necklace tightly in her hand, walked forward steadily as if she had found her goal.

Chapter 348 Let's Begin Our War (Date)

Accelerator was sitting in his seat, utterly bored.

After several days, the special training for Itsuka Shido finally made some progress.

Of course, the so-called progress actually only refers to the improvement in the relationship between men and women.

It's probably like successfully progressing from not knowing anything to being able to speak a little... In reality, I don't know much, just a few sentences, and I often stutter when I speak because of nervousness.

Ultimately, relying on so-called sweet talk to win someone's favor and then go on a date doesn't seem like a way for him to survive on the battlefield.

"It's been almost a week and a half."

"So what exactly did that kid practice?"

Sitting next to Accelerator was Hatsune Miku, who also seemed rather boring, with a distinctly dull expression on her face.

Right now, the most important point of observation is Itsuka Shido.

What kind of things does Itsuka Shido do every day?

Training on how to complete Galgame games.

An experiment to seduce nearby women.

This is what Itsuka Shido does every day, which means that even now, if you're by his side, you won't get any new prompts from the system.

"This is hilarious! When are these guys going to stop doing these stupid things?"

"Ha~ It's not so bad, actually. At least this way, it's a peaceful scene for the world, right?"

If there is any further development of the mission, it will generally only happen under the premise of combat. However, since no new information has been received from the system, it means that the current state of peace will continue.

"However, some of the content is indeed a bit off."

"what?"

"Of course, it's a question about girls."

Picking up one of her fingers, Hatsune Miku said, clearly slightly displeased.

"For one person to try and seduce so many girls at once... that's just too bizarre!"

"..."

Accelerator, who was sitting to the side, stopped paying attention to all of this.

For the past few days, he has been basically searching for and keeping track of intelligence about the city.

He had investigated AST, DEM, and other content related to elves to some extent, but that was not enough. He needed a motivation and purpose to take further action.

Although that was the plan before, finding a suitable target now is extremely difficult for someone of his level.

"...Is that what you mean?"

"Huh?! Is that so—?"

"I thought you were referring to the kind of interactions between men and women."

"Puwaa ...

"Isn't that how it is...?"

"No, I can't say no, but this... this is a bit too blunt..."

"Really? So that means it's okay?"

"Wait a minute, Origami—!!"

like this.

This kind of content has been repeated several times in the past few days. Sometimes it happened to Origami Tobiichi, sometimes it happened to other women, and even the homeroom teacher here was not spared.

What the hell are these guys doing?

Accelerator, who had thought this for who knows how many times, could only sigh in utter boredom.

then.

A sound, seemingly permeating the entire room, came directly from outside the campus.

"Huh…?"

Not only Itsuka Shido, but all the other students were also stunned.

Accelerator and Hatsune Miku raised their heads slightly.

"...I'm sorry, I have something urgent to attend to this time. Let's talk next time."

"Hello, hello—!"

Under Itsuka Shido's watchful gaze, Origami Tobiichi swiftly leaped out of the corridor window.

"One side! This is..."

"It's a spacequake."

Accelerator, who was sitting in a chair, pulled his legs off the crossbar under the table.

At the same time, two streams of light descended from the sky and enveloped the two of them.

Accelerator couldn't help but squint his eyes.

"I see, at least we can finally start having work to do."

——————————————————————————————————————————

When they came to their senses again, all three of them had already arrived at the command room inside the warship.

An airship named Fraxinus.

"Are you finally here?"

"Kotori!"

Upon seeing Kotori Itsuka appear on the command seat, Shido Itsuka immediately ran over.

In the past few days, he has basically figured out his sister's true identity.

The other party was not only the commander of this warship, but also a relatively important figure in an organization called Ratatoskr.

"Don't rush, the best is yet to come."

"Huh? What does this mean..."

"What the hell? What did you think all these days of special training were for?"

In a moment, Itsuka Shido thought of a possibility that made him feel terrified.

"You're going to throw this guy right where the elves appear?"

"Don't put it so bluntly, well, although the essence isn't that different."

"What a lame joke. If you're not careful, this guy could die. You know, be completely obliterated."

"If we just leave the elves to fend for themselves, won't this be the end result sooner or later?"

So that's how it is...!

Itsuka Shido felt a chill run down his spine.

He already knew exactly what he was going to do next.

However, even with this awareness, one still feels inner tension when actually facing the situation.

"Kannazuki."

"Yes."

"Turn on the spaceship's projection so we can see clearly what the location of the elves looks like."

"Understood."

"There's more."

"Excuse me…?"

"Don't you dare work with that face all red and like you're about to have a nosebleed, you idiot!!"

"Pfft—!!"

Shido Itsuka stared in shock at the blond youth who had been kicked away by his younger sister with a backflip. At the same time, he noticed that some liquid seemed to have flowed through the air.

"Is...is it blood?!"

"It's this guy's nosebleed! How disgusting..."

Seeing the lifeless Vice Commander Kannazuki Kyohei lying on the side, Itsuka Shido's initial tension vanished instantly, replaced by an unimaginable sense of astonishment.

How on earth did someone like this become a deputy commander?!

"The footage has been captured."

"...Is this Lai Chan High School?"

"Huh?! Our school?"

"You're quite lucky this time. After directly experiencing the spacequake from the elf, your school is still intact and undamaged. It seems that the elf did it on purpose."

Once the projection appeared on the screen, everyone saw it.

The girl in the purple princess dress was located inside Raizen High School.

"Okay, then you can go directly there."

"...Are you kidding me...?"

"What are you talking about? Elves aren't going to come to you willingly. You haven't become that lazy, have you?"

"No, no! You mean you want me to face that girl with superhuman strength all by myself?!"

That is indeed a problem.

If the negotiation with the spirit fails even slightly, Itsuka Shido, who has no defensive capabilities, will be killed on the spot.
